"The atmosphere out there at the moment is completely electric", commentated John Pulman 35 years ago.
Frame 25 (deciding frame): Cliff Thorburn vs Jimmy White, 1986 Classic final.
Jimmy White has already won numerous titles, including the Masters, but hasn't won a ranking title yet. He lost his three ranking finals, the second one to Steve Davis at the Crucible and the last one to Cliff Thorburn only three months earlier.
Things get complicated for Jimmy when a fluke strikes his hopes, as he can only win the title if he achieves a feat no one had previously accomplished in snooker.
ERRATUM: commentator is Rex Williams, not John Spencer (thanks to Keorbats and Steve Coombs for the feedback).
The statistics shown in the video correspond to the date of the match.
Cesar Muroya created a unique editing technique to extract the essence of the game without losing the drama involved. Contextual information is also an innovation appreciated by viewers.
This format is not intended to substitute the full version but rather to make snooker more accessible to new fans. The fluency and atmosphere of the game stay in a shorter length video, allowing even experienced fans to enjoy snooker at any time.
